Eco Fair project in the Consultation meeting on the draft of the “Code of Conduct on Responsible Business”
On September 22th, 2021, the Vietnam Rural Industries Research and Development Institute (VIRI) cooperates with Vietnam Fruit and Vegetable Association (VINAFRUIT) to organized consultation meeting the draft of “the Code of conduct on environmentally” for the fruit and vegetable sector. The consultation meeting contributed to the process of building a responsible business model for businesses in Viet Nam that care about the environment and responsible business. This activity is in the frame work of project “Advancing environmentally responsible business practice for the fruit and vegetable sector in Vietnam” funded by the Government of Sweden and UNDP Vietnam.
Since the similarity in the goals of the two projects, Mr. Dang Phuc Nguyen – General Secretary of Vietnam Fruit and Vegetable Association (VINAFRUIT), shared the supporting activities of the project “Promotion of supply and demand of eco-fair agri-food processing products in Vietnam” (Eco-Fair) funded by the European Union, as well as the benefits that businesses will receive when participating in this meeting. Businesses also asked some related questions about the project. In the future, coordination activities between projects like this will continue to be considered and carried out.
